Evernote Skitch vs. OBS Studio

Evernote Skitch is great for anyone that is taking frequent screenshots for their job (or personal use). I find it is much easier to use than some other tools out there, and it is free to use!

From simple streaming to bigger events, OBS has been able to handle all of it with full confidence from us. Have never questioned if it was going to be unreliable in a specific situation, even with minimal training. Software identified the external input source easily and had no issues setting that up (Blackmagic Mini Recorder), and great for pulling in separate audio from the computer input.

• OBS Studio makes it easy to connect with streaming service providers
• OBS Studio makes it easy to switch from source to source during your broadcast
• OBS Studio makes it easy to design and edit what your viewers will see.

• editing-montaging videos
• easier way to adjust webcam image (templates)
• i wish mic choice would show up in the window. sometimes the wrong mic is selected and notice too late (after recording)

Very usable because it is free and has had a lot of people helping to suggest improvements and sponsors have allowed the product to grow in sophistication and suitability across a variety of situations and use needs. It is very logical to use once you get started, although the dashboard can seem intimidating at first.

For a free product, a range of support is available. There are plenty of ways to find out answers to questions, because there are probably thousands of people using the product who are willing to share what they have learned. It usually works as designed, so needs for support are limited.

I have also used TinyTake by Mango Apps and I prefer OBS studio because the video quality results are better and OBS allows you to record an unlimited length of the video. OBS also lets you record an entire screen instead of manually having to draw your parameters, which can create oddly sizes videos if you miss by a few pixels.

Incentivized

• Cost is free, so any benefits are immense in terms of investment.
• Learning curve is steep, so time can be a cost.
• Flexibility is probably the biggest benefit to the people that use it.
